DOC Suggestions

I have a year to go for the wedding and I am seriously thinking of having a Day Of Coordinator.  However, I am absolutely clueless on who to use.

Please help and suggest Coordinators for me. TIA

    Hi...I worked with Chic Designs & Fabulous Events.  Julie was truly amazing to work with.  She has an eye for detail that surpasses anything I have ever seen before, and she is so kind hearted.  Def had my feelings and ideas as her #1 priority throughout the entire wedding planning process.

    I'm using Julie with Chic N Fabulous.  She's been very cognizant of our budget and I cannot say enough about how creative she is and also how easy she is to work with.

    You should visit her showroom and I'm sure that will seal the deal.  It's absolutely breathtaking!

    I ended up hiring my person to be my full service wedding planner since it included rental of her decor items (arch for the beach, benches, etc. etc.). It worked out well for us! She is reasonably priced.

    My wedding planner/DOC charges based upon how much involvement she has in your event.  I've heard she (Julie Perez) is very reasonable and I agree.  She also has charger plates, etc. to rent and has vendors come to her showroom so you don't have to run all over town.  She works with your vendor and/or the vendors she normally works with.

    She's right next door to A Piece of Cake.  I met with Julie, had my cake tasting, met with her invitation person, and with 2 other potential vendors and I didn't even have to move my car.

    I'm using Julie (chic designs & fabulous events) as well. You definitely want her on your side. She is a brides best friend. She is extremely reasonably priced, and what you pay for her she more than makes up for in vendor connections. Love her!

    We are also going with Julie!  I am planning my wedding from Indiana, and definitely wanted someone in the area to work with.  So for the communication has been amazing!  I have been bouncing ideas off of her, and she has always responded with her creative thoughts. And she is only the Day-of Coordinator!  Definitely work the price...

    Thanks to you all who responded.  I have meetings set up with both Julie and Beth of Faboulous Occasions.  I'll let you know how they go!

    Im also going with Premier Butterfly Events but Christina is my DOC. I think it is well worth the money that way I dont have to worry about anything and I can sit back and relax.

    I wanted to come back and thank you all again for the suggestions.  I decided to go with Beth from Flawless Occasions, only because Julie didn't have experience with my ceremony venue.

    You ladies were right though, Julie's showroom is awesome and she is just as sweet as you all described.
